Local Resident – who operates a caravan site noticed that one of the caravaners left recently due to the constant smell. It was a particularly bad week for the smell which resulted in us complaining on a number of occasions. If permission is to be granted the height of the stockpiles should be linked to three metres which will help us. Councillor A H Turner MBE, JP, the local Member, hoped that the height restrictions for the site would be enforced for the benefit of local residents.

Therefore consider it would have a significant impact on visual amenity of their property in particular views from kitchen and bathrooms which look over Woodgate Lane over the field it is proposed to site the pumping station. The pumping station with the 6m aerial mast would seriously curtail their view especially during the winter months. Also proximity to this property would put them at risk from potential noise, vibration or smell from the pumping station. • Two metres of the lay-by would be opposite their driveway vehicles parking in the layby would restrict ability to turn into and out of driveway. Also the presence of a layby would encourage other vehicles to use this layby changing character of rural lane.
